Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em][Am][D]
I heard you call
for an all star band
[Bm]It's something new for[D]
the music stand
It's on the [E]way,
but be[Am]fore [D]we start[A]
A cuttin' caper[E]s around y[D]our heart

[Verse 2]
[Em]You're gonna cheer when[D]
you hear this band
[Em]There's never [Dm]been a better [C]crew
And when you [C#dim]hear the drummer
Lawdy, [Em]how t[E]he joint'll hum
A cuttin' [Am]capers [Bm]just [B]for you[Em]
You'll [D]never [Em]pick [D]about

[Verse 3]
or pick a quarr'l
With Mister [E]Krupa or with [D]Frankie Carle
[Am]You'll never dig a[E] list of
[Am]bigger [E]names
[A]A cuttin' capers with Harry Jam[D]es

[Verse 4]
With Benny [D]Goodman and his clarinet
[Bdim]And Tommy Do[Dm]rsey's in it, [Am]too[C]
Alvino Rey will [C#dim]star
A [B]walkin' talkin' [Em]steel guitar
A [Am]cut tin' c[A]apers [D]just f[Bm]or you[Em][D]

[Verse 5]
Listen [Em]to that tenor saxophone
Never heard it played with
such a [Dm]tone[Am][E]
[Am]And when you get that [D]lic'rish stick
[Bm]Out [B]in the woodshed, s[Em]on
Why [E]it's [Bm]Papa [Bbdim]Benny

[Verse 6]
[Bm]Goodman
And he's [B]showin' [Bbdim]ya quick[A]
[Am]How the [D]proper [Am]lic'r[D]ish
[A]stickin's done
(Too root, dah roo, ta, [Bm]doo doo)
[Em]Listen to that

[Verse 7]
fiddle player slap, slap, slap
[D]Boy[E], he pla[Em]ys it, he really lays it,
in your [C]lap, lap, [F]lap
[Am]Say, [C]I'll bet befor[C#dim]e
